You couldn’t pay me enough to live in any city. Suburbs for me.
More crime is not the only difference Americans notice in large cities. There are also different laws regarding decency, civility, and cleanliness. Unfortunately, manners and traditional customs are rarely, if ever, practiced.
“You couldn’t pay me enough to live in any city. Suburbs for me.”
You got that right. I went from the Bronx NY to Paramus NJ (late 50’s) to Raleigh NC then retired here at the OBX NC. Nothing like a tranquil environment instead of the crowds every where you go.
Me either. Call me whatever you want, but all the drug addicts and the defecation on the sidewalks isn’t safe for my children.
Murders in small cities like ALBANY Schenectady and Troy all in New York are skyrocketing. Who would live 9r send kids to college there?
Exurbs for me.
Been there, done that.
Couldn’t pay me enough to live in either city or suburbs.
Living rural is nicer & cheaper.
